Every year thousands of people choose for eyelid correction. Top and bottom eyelids that have begun to droop have an aging effect on the face. Not only does it make you look older and tired but quite often people interpret this as a sign of an exuberant lifestyle. An eyelid improvement offers the solution.  

THE SURGERY

It is important that the surgeon analyses the eyelid problem in order to determine which surgical procedure is best for you.

SURPLUS SKIN FOUND IN THE TOP AND BOTTOM EYELIDS With a fine scalpel, the surgeon removes the extra skin above each eye in the shape of a half moon. For the bottom eyelid, the incision is made right under the bottom eyelashes. Afterwards, the incisions are sutured in the natural crease of the eye, which will hide the scar.

Eye Bags The surgeon removes the excess or moves it back to its original place by making an incision in the inside of the lower eyelid. This  is called a transconjunctival blepharoplasty. In this case, there is no visible scar left

EYEBROW LIFT

EYE CONTOUR

An eye contour operation is the perfect solution for eyes that have contour wrinkles or a permanent unhappy appearance. It corrects the outside corner of the eye and can be combined with an eyebrow lift.

THE SEDATION

General anaesthesia is avoided while intravenous sedation is used instead. The strength of the sedation can be discussed between you and the sedation assistant. A simple anaesthetic is often all that is required. The sedation method chosen depends upon your wishes and the type of surgery.

RECOVERY

Sutures, if used, will be removed after a few days. Bruising and swelling can last up to two to three weeks but with the help of good make-up can be disguised. Our skin therapist will gladly advise you. You can begin to wear make-up after removal of the sutures.

The experience and the insight of the plastic surgeon plays an important role in planning the surgery and achieving the best results.
